Here's how they're attacking his credibility:
1. Saying because he was in the Uniform Division, he didn't have the access he claimed to have. They frequently point out that he was filling a job at the "lowest level."
2. Saying he wouldn't have had the decision making ability at his level to do some of the things he did.
There are more examples, but of lesser significance.
Here's the truth that is undisputed:
1. One of his posts for quite some time was outside the door to the Oval Office. That alone grants you substantial access. You will hear and see things.
2. He was scathing in his review of the secret service management and bureaucracy.
3. He almost had his career ruined as a result of Bill's affairs. He was a major witness in the Ken Starr investigations. Ken Starr may be many things, but a bad attorney and investigator, he is not. If this man had nothing to offer, Starr would have dropped him and moved on.
While this was going on, he managed to find himself independent legal counsel that due to his level of involvement, were more than happy to offer their services pro bono. Many other agents and staff who were caught up in the snare weren't so lucky and were paying $200-$300/hour for their own counsel. This was damaging to many of them. Clinton never once apologized to anyone who his actions genuinely harmed, namely the people like the secret service who stuck their necks on the line to protect him from his own stupidity.
He also discussed these white house interns, and how they all did whatever they could do to get close to the president. What made Lewinsky stand out was her persistence and her shamelessness. Red pillers should look at her as a case study in just how far some women will go in order to have a seat on what they think is the most alpha of alpha cocks in all the land.
He talked about how the naval steward, perhaps one of the most dedicated people you'll ever meet, was driven almost to the point of nervous breakdown in his efforts to conceal Bill's behavior.
He discussed the morale break down among the secret service as a result of living on the edge constantly. How they took up drinking and whoring to ease the stress.
Finally he discussed how it would have been impossible for Hillary to not know about what was going on. He essentially confirms three mistresses: Lewinsky, Eleanor Mondale (daughter of Walter), and a white house receptionist whose lipstick the Steward was washing out of white house towels by hand to protect Bill. He said their marriage was as businesslike as it gets. And that she wasn't angry about the affairs, she was angry about the damage done to the Clinton Inc brand.
One final tidbit. When Bush Sr retired, they converted a building on his property for a secret service facility to accommodate his security detail. He had it enlarged so they would be more comfortable and he picked up the tab. When the Clintons went to NY so she could carpetbag her way back to DC, they bought that mansion for $1.7 million. The secret service paid to convert an old garage into an outpost, and then had to purchase an adjacent house to set up a better command center. The secret was/is paying about $7000/month to rent that garage, which is what pays/paid the mortgage on the house.
He obviously had help writing the book, for reasons you'll quickly learn about in the first few pages. Regardless, it's well written. It downloaded at 11PM last night (immediately on release) and I didn't put it down until 7AM when I finished reading it.
